Import tensorflow as tf ошибка

I’ve recently gone through the installation of tensorflow (and struggled a little) and when I believed I had got it, I now get these import errors when running a file that ONLY contains import tensorflow as tf, I ran the cmd: python3 tftest.py and get these import errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):

Error importing tensorflow.  Unless you are using bazel,
you should not try to import tensorflow from its source directory;
please exit the tensorflow source tree, and relaunch your python interpreter
from there.

I do have tensorflow installed

Name: tensorflow
Version: 0.12.0
Location: /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages
Requires: numpy, six, protobuf, wheel

I’ve been trying to figure this out for hours, has anyone encountered this or a similar error? I’ve looked at installation manuals, and followed every single step I could. I’ve tried reintalling protobuf

I am not running my test file on the tensorflow directory.

I would really REALLY appreciate any help since this error is draining my brain out.

installed from anaconda using
pip install tensorflow

OS Platform:
Windows 7 64bit
intel processor
intel hd graphic graphic card
python version 3.6.4

Have I written custom code: No
Bazel version : I don’t have
CUDA/cuDNN version : I don’t have
GPU model and memory :NA
Exact command to reproduce : import tensorflow as tf using jupyter

(base) C:Usersdavid>pip install tensorflow

I installed tensorflow using the following command.

pip install tensorflow

I am running a simple program which is

import tensorflow as tf
node1 = tf.constant(3.0, tf.float32)
node2 = tf.constant(4.0) # also tf.float32 implicitly
print(node1, node2)

I am getting the following error on running the program.

I have updated the pip and am running the program on python 3.5

In this Python tutorial, we will discuss the error “import error no module named TensorFlow“. Here we’ll cover the reason related to this error using Python. And we’ll also cover the following topics:

• Import error no module named tensorflow.compat.v1
• Import error no module named ‘tensorflow.contrib’
• Import error no module named tensorflow_hub
• Import error no module named ‘tensorflow addons’
• Import error no module named ‘tensorflow.python.eager’

• In this section, we will discuss the error import error no module named TensorFlow in Python.
• Basically, this error message comes when we do not import the TensorFlow library or we can say the TensorFlow library is not installed in our system.
• If you have not installed the TensorFlow library in your system and still want to try importing the TensorFlow library in your program then it will raise an error message ‘no module named TensorFlow.

Example:

import tensorflow as tf

tens1 = tf.Variable([[67, 89],[23, 45]])
tens2 = tf.Variable([[94, 117],[189, 210]])
new_output= tf.add(tens1,tens2)
print(new_output)

In the above code, we have used the tf.add() function and within this function, we assigned the given tensors ‘tens1’ and ‘tens2’ as an argument.

Here is the Screenshot of the following given code.

Now let’s see the solution for this error:

Visual Code Studio

If you have installed Visual code Studio then it will use a pip environment and if you want to import some needed libraries then you have to install via command.

• install TensorFlow using pip command

Syntax:

Here is the Syntax of the installation of the TensorFlow library

pip install TensorFlow

This Syntax will help you to resolve the error ‘no Module named TensorFlow’

Jupyter

If you have installed Jupyter notebook then use the Conda environment. To get detailed information regarding how to install the TensorFlow library in the Conda environment. You can refer to our detailed article TensorFlow in Python.

Also, check: TensorFlow Sparse Tensor

Import error no module named ‘tensorflow.contrib’

• Here we are going to discuss the error import error no module named ‘TensorFlow.contrib’.
• Basically, the contrib module is not available in TensorFlow version 2.0. This module contains contributed code and it is also a volatile code.
• The possible reason behind this error is when the interpreter cannot locate the contrib ‘module’ in the library.
• The latest version of TensorFlow 2.x has removed the session and contrib module from the TensorFlow library.

Reason: module ‘contrib’ is not working in version 2.x

Example:

import tensorflow.contrib

Here is the Screenshot of the following given code

In the following given code, we have just imported the ‘TensorFlow.contrib’ module but when we executed this command it displays the No module named ‘TensorFlow.contrib’. The possible reason is this module does not work in the latest version of TensorFlow 2.x.

Let’s discuss the solution to this error

• First, uninstall the already installed version, if it is the latest version then reinstall it with the older version. To uninstall the tensorflow 2.x you can easily use the command pip uninstall TensorFlow.
• Now to install older version of TensorFlow 1.x you can use below command

pip install tensorflow==1.15.0

Read: Python TensorFlow reduce_sum

Import error no module named tensorflow.compat.v1

• In this section, we are going to discuss the error no module named tensorflow.compat.v1.
• The possible reason behind this error is that compat.v1 modules are deprecated in Tensorflow version 1.12.0. This module will help the user to write the code in both TensorFlow versions.
• This module does not support the 1.12 version, if you want to execute this module on your system then you have to install the latest or above the 1.12 version.

Example:

Now we are going to use the updated version of TensorFlow for importing the TensorFlow.compat.v1 module in Python

To install the new version of TensorFlow in Conda prompt you can use the below command

conda install tensorflow==2.6

As you can see in the Screenshot we have checked the version of TensorFlow it displays 2.6 latest version and also successfully imported the TensorFlow.compat.v1.

Also, check: Module ‘TensorFlow’ has no attribute ‘session’

Import error no module named ‘tensorflow_hub’

• In this Program, we will discuss the error no module named ‘tensorflow_hub’ in Python.
• Basically, this error message comes when the module ‘tensorflow_hub’ is not available in the TensorFlow library package.

Example:

As you can see in the Screenshot it displays no module name ‘tensorflow_hub’ the reason behind this is we are using the older version of TensorFlow 1.14. In this version, the tensorflow_hub module is not working.

Let’s have a look at the Solution to this error

To solve this error you have to install the latest version of TensorFlow in your system. By default 2.7 is a stable version and to install the updated version of TensorFlow, you can use the below command. This command is used for conda prompt users.

conda install tensorflow==2.7

Screenshot

In this Screenshot, you can see that we have installed the latest version of TensorFlow 2.7 and then import the tensorflow_hub module.

Import error no module named ‘tensorflow addons’

• In this section, we will discuss the error no module named ‘tensorflow addons’ in Python.
• Basically, the addon module is available in the latest TensorFlow version 2.7 but we have to update the ‘TensorFlow addons’ module. This module is not available in core Tensorflow and it also supports optimizers, metrics, and losses.

Screenshot

As you can see in the output, it displays no module name ‘tensorflow_addons’. And the possible reason is that the ‘tensorflow_addons‘ module is available in TensorFlow latest version 2.7. But we have to update the ‘tensorflow_addons’ module.

Let’s have a look at the Solution to this error

To solve this error you have to install the older version of TensorFlow in your system. By default 2.7 is a stable version but this module only does not work in the latest version 2.x.

Output:

To upgrade the ‘TensorFlow addons’ module you can easily use the below command

pip install tensorflow-addons

In the above code, we have imported the tensorflow_addons() module after upgrading the module.

Import error no module named ‘tensorflow.python.eager’

• Here we are going to discuss the error no module named ‘tensorflow.python.eager’ in Python.
• When I was trying to import the ‘TensorFlow.python.eager’ module this error comes out in output. The reason behind that is the version of the TensorFlow library.

Let’s have a look at the Solution to this error

In this example, we have just imported the TensorFlow library and then checked the version by using the tf.__version__ command. After that, we have imported the ‘tensorflow.python.eager’ module. Once you will execute this code the output displays the module has been successfully imported.

Example:

Also, take a look at some more Python TensorFlow tutorials.

• Binary Cross Entropy TensorFlow
• Gradient descent optimizer TensorFlow
• Python TensorFlow Placeholder
• Convert list to tensor TensorFlow
• Module ‘tensorflow’ has no attribute ‘div’
• Module ‘tensorflow’ has no attribute ‘sparse_placeholder’

So, in this tutorial, we have solved the error “import error no module named TensorFlow“. Here we’ll cover the reason related to this error using Python. And we’ll also cover the following topics:

• import error no module named tensorflow.compat.v1
• import error no module named ‘tensorflow.contrib’
• import error no module named tensorflow_hub
• import error no module named ‘tensorflow addons’
• import error no module named ‘tensorflow.python.eager’

The “ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘tensorflow’” error in Python shows that Python cannot find the module ‘tensorflow’ that is imported in your code or some packages your code imports. This tutorial will show you how to fix the error by installing ‘tensorflow’ in your environment.

When you run your Python code, the Python runtime will look for all the packages or modules you import to your code and their dependencies. If the runtime cannot find a module, it will throw a ModuleNotFoundError. The error “ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘tensorflow’” show that Python cannot find ‘tensorflow’ in your environment, so you need to install it to run your code correctly. Here I have an example code that imports ‘tensorflow’ and prints its version. You will get the error if you run this code in a Python environment without ‘tensorflow’ installed.

Example code:

import tensorflow as tf
print("Tensorflow version:", tf.__version__)

Output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "main.py", line 1, in <module>
    import tensorflow as tf
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tensorflow'

How to solve the error?

Method 1: Install tensorflow directly with pip

Pip is the package installer for Python that comes with Python when you install Python on your machine. You can check the version of pip by the following command in your terminal of Linux/MacOS or the Command prompt of Windows. 

pip --version

Output:

pip 21.1.3 from <the path where pip installed on your machine>

To install ‘tensorflow’ using pip, you can easily run this command.

pip install tensorflow

You can also specify the ‘tensorflow’ version that you want to install like this.

pip install tensorflow==2.10.0

After successfully installing ‘tensorflow’, you can use it in your code as you want.

Example code:

import tensorflow as tf
print("Tensorflow version:", tf.__version__)

Output:

Tensorflow version: 2.10.0

Method 2: Install tensorflow in a python virtual environment

It is recommended to install the packages that you need for different projects in different environments because you may want to use different versions of a package in your projects. Using different environments helps to keep the packages not conflict with each other. You can create and activate a virtual environment by the following steps.

• Step 1: Install virtualenv package

pip install virtualenv

• Step 2: Create the environment folder where the packages will be installed

python -m venv env

• Step 3: Activate the environment

On Linux/MacOS:

source env/bin/activate

On Windows:

cd env/Scripts
activate.bat

Step 2 will create an environment folder name env in the directory where you run the command. After activating your environment, you can normally install ‘tensorflow’ using the pip command: 

pip install tensorflow

Method 3: Install tensorflow using conda

Another way to create python environments is using conda. You can download and install the conda by following this instruction. After installing conda, you can create a new environment by the command:

conda create -n myenv python

Then, you can activate your environment:

conda activate myenv

Finally, you can install ‘tensorflow’ using pip or conda if you want.

conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow

Summary

In this tutorial, I’ve showed you how to solve the error  “ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘tensorflow’” In Python. You can install ‘tensorflow’ directly with pip, but it is recommended to create an environment by the Python virtualenv or conda.
